Can I bleach my teeth now?

I'm still breastfeeding.

Can I bleach my teeth now?
According to my references, teeth whiteners are carbamide peroxide, which is just a stabilized formulation of hydrogen peroxide. When it touches tissue, it releases pure hydrogen peroxide almost immediately. Its transfer to the plasma is minimal, if at all. According to Thomas Hale, PhD (in Medications and Mothers' Milk), "it would be all but impossible for any to reach breastmilk except under extreme overdose." Even if absorbed, it would be metabolized in seconds.
Reply:talk to your dentist. Don't attempt to do it yourself.





I would honestly say no because that will get into your system and pass to the baby.
